Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental therapy of human glioma by means of a genetically engineered virus mutant

TL;DR: A thymidine kinase-negative mutant of herpes simplex virus-1 (dlsptk) that is attenuated for neurovirulence was tested as a possible treatment for gliomas and merit further evaluation as novel antineoplastic agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meningioma: analysis of recurrence and progression following neurosurgical resection

TL;DR: The rates of survival, tumor recurrence, and tumor progression were analyzed in 225 patients with meningioma who underwent surgery as the only treatment modality between 1962 and 1980, and there was no difference in the recurrence/progression rates according to the patients' age or sex, or the duration of symptoms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conditionally replicating herpes simplex virus mutant, G207 for the treatment of malignant glioma: results of a phase I trial.

TL;DR: Radiographic and neuropathologic evidence suggestive of anti-tumor activity and long-term presence of viral DNA in some cases is found, and no toxicity or serious adverse events could unequivocally be ascribed to G207.
